Hi there! So glad to have you her today. October is here: can you believe it? I don’t know what the weather is like where you are, but it has been rainy, wet, and cold the past few days here, and I’m being reminded of how hard it is to peel myself out of bed in the mornings when it’s dark outside. But, today I have an awesome freebie for you that will make you JUMP out of bed from excitement (ok, maybe you won’t jump out of bed…but you are going to like it). I give you: hand drawn hipster graphics.
“Hipster” are a subculture of men and women typically in their 20’s and 30’s that value independent thinking, counter-culture, progressive politics, an appreciation of art and indie-rock, creativity, intelligence, and witty banter (as defined by Urban Dictionary, but if hipster had true definition, it wouldn’t conform to it). Ok, so, even though I’m not a hipster, I LOVE hipster-esque design! It just so fun, and I like the flat look with the retro colors. So, today I’ve decided to offer a freebie to you with the spirit of the hipster (bet you haven’t heard that phrase before) in mind.
Use these “effortlessly cool” design elements on your next home made scarf, protest poster, or to add to the cover art you’re working on for your next indie album. Ok, maybe you’ll just use them for a fun printable design or a birthday card or something—either way, they will add the retro-stylish look you want.
And, if you love free downloads like these, be sure to check out my laurel wreath graphics and hand drawn boho elements too.
Happy designing!
